Ella moved out of the chair the second she heard voices coming from outside the room and she sees Steve Rogers and the man she had learned was Sam Wilson and the woman was none other then Natasha Romanoff also known as Black widow who looked shocked when she sees Fury laying in the bed.

"About damn time." Fury said as he looks at the four people that had walked into the room.

"How bad?" Natasha asked as she the doctor moved her towards the chair beside the bed and the second she sat down he moved a hand behind her back and one over the bullet wound and pressed down hard in hops to stop the bleeding.

"Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone, perforated liver and one hell of a headache." Fury said.

"Don´t forget your collapsed lunge." The doctor said as he kept his hand on Natasha´s wound.

"Let´s not forget that." Fury said with sarcasm." Otherwise i am good."

"They cut you open. Your heart stopped." Natasha Said.

"Tetrodotoxin B. It slows the pulse to one beat a minuet. Banner developed it for stress. Didn´t work so great for him, but we found use for it." Fury said.

"Why all the secrecy? Why not just tell us?" Steve asked as his eyes when to the woman that stood by Fury´s bed side.

"Any attempt one the Director´s life had to look successful." Hill said.

"Can´t kill you if you are already dead. Besides, i wasn´t sure who to trust." Fury said as he looked over at Steve to see he was staring at Ella and he was about to say something when Steve pointed his finger at her.

"I know you." Steve said.

"Everyone i would like for you to meet Ella Coulson." Fury said as he held his hand out towards Ella.

"Coulson?" Natasha said as she looked over at Ella." As in.."

"She is Phil´s niece." Fury said as he got out of the bed with help from Hill and they walked over and he sat down by the table that stood in the middle of the room.

"Why is she here?" Steve asked with a hard look on his face cause she might be Phil´s niece, but he didn´t know her and that meant he didn´t trust her.

"Ella has been helping me over the past few years and she is the reason we are all sitting here talking and not 10 feet under." Fury said as he looked over at Steve.

"She can be trusted."

"Says you." Steve said as he looked from Ella and towards Fury."

"How about we get back to why we are all here?" Ella said as she looked down at Fury who where holding a photo in his hand.

"This man declined the Nobel peace prize. He said that peace it not an achievement but a responsibility and it is stuff like this that gives me trust issues." Fury said as he let the photo fall from his hand and onto the table.

"We have to stop the lunch." Natasha said as she looked at the people in the room.

"I don´t think the Council´s accepting my calls anymore." Fury said as he looked at Natasha and at the same time he opened the small suitcase that was on the table beside him.

"What´s that?" Sam asked as looks at what was inside the suitcase.

"Once the helicarriers reach 3,000 feet, they triangulate with insight satellites, becoming fully weaponised. "Hill said as she turned her lab top around for them to see what was one the screen.

"We need to breach those carriers and replace their targeting blades with our own." Fury said.

"One our two won´t cut it. We need to link all three carriers for this to work, because if even one of dose ships remains operational, a whole lot of people are gonna die." Hill said.

"We have to assume everyone aboard those carriers is hydra. We have to get past them, insert those server blades and maybe, just maybe we salvag what´s left..."

"We are not salvaging anything. We are not just taking down the carriers, Nick." We are taking down S.h.i.e.l.d." Steve said.

"S.h.i.e.l.d. has nothing to do with this." Fury said.

"You gave me this mission. This is how it ends. S.h.i.e.l.d.s been compromised. You said it yourself. Hydra grew right under your nose and nobody noticed." Steve said.

"Why do you think we are meeting in this cave? I noticed." Fury said.

"How many paid the price before you did?" Steve asked as he folded his arms across his chest.

"Look, i didn´t know about Barnes." Fury said as he quickly looked towards Ella.

Steve narrowed his eyes as he sees the look Ella and Fury are given each other." But she did." Steve said as he unfolded his arms as he pointed his finger over at Ella.

"She only just found out and i..." Fury started to say when Steve interrupted him.

"Would you have told me? Or would you have compartmentalized that, too?" Steve asked as he looked between Fury and Ella." S.h.i.e.l.d., Hydra, it all goes." Steve said as he looked back at Fury.

"He is right." Hill said with a sad look on her face cause she knew how much s.h.i.e.l.d. meant to Fury.

Fury looked over at Natasha, who nodded her like she was saying Steve was right. Fury looked over at Sam.

"Don´t look at me." Sam said, pointing at himself." I do what he dose, just slower."

"Well... It looks like you are giving the orders now, captain." Fury said as he turned his head towards Ella.

"She stays here." Steve said.

"I am sorry?" Ella said as she took a step towards Steve, but she stopped as Fury placed his hand on her arm cause he didn´t need to have them fighting at a time like this.

"Ella."

Ella looked at Fury like he had lost his mind cause she was only here for one thing and she was not going to let Steve Rogers stand in her way, but she took a step back as she sees Fury´s lips moving and she let out a sigh as she turned to look at Steve.

"Whatever you say Captain." She said as she took a step back." Jack ass." She whispered.

"What was that?" Steve said as he turned around to look at her.

"I didn´t say anything." Ella said." Are you losing your hearing our something?" She asked as she leaned her head to the side." I hear that happens a lot to old people." She said with a smile on her face.

"Ella enough." Fury said as Steve and Sam turned and walked out of the room, but Natasha stood there staring at her with a smile on her face.

"I like you." She said before she turned and follow after Steve and Sam.

"What the hell?" Ella asked as she looks at Fury.

"I need you for something else and you said you wanted Pierce, right?" Fury said as he looks at her.

"Yeah, i want Pierce."

"Good, so lets get ready." Fury said as he tried to get out of the chair, but sat back down as he felt a rush of pain go through is body." A little help."

Ella reached her hand out to Fury so she could help him get to his feet and they walked out of the room to get ready for what was about to happen.
